Republican Rep. Lauren Boebert has publicly broken with the president and members of her party over proposals to approve up to $200 billion in additional funding for the U.S. war effort in Iran, saying she will oppose any such measure and urging a shift toward domestic priorities.

"I am a no. I've already told leadership. I am a no on any war supplementals," Boebert told CNN. "I am so tired of spending money elsewhere... We need America First policies right now, and that?
